Description

Intense laser emission at 3577 A (v'=0 of the C3π/subu/ state to v''=1 of the B3π/subg/ state of the nitrogen molecule) has been demonstrated to take place by an addition of a large quantity of SF6 as a foreign gas in a transversely excited nitrogen laser. The output at 3577 A is increased with increasing partial pressure of SF6, until a total pressure of up to 250 Torr. With sufficient SF6 added, the output at 3371 A is increased by a factor of 1.3 as compared with the case of N2 gas alone
